This book presents extensive information on structural health monitoring for suspension
bridges. During the past two decades there have been significant advances in the sensing
technologies employed in long-span bridge health monitoring. However interpretation of the
massive monitoring data is still lagging behind. This book establishes a series of measurement
interpretation frameworks that focus on bridge site environmental conditions and global and
local responses of suspension bridges. Using the proposed frameworks it subsequently offers
new insights into the structural behaviors of long-span suspension bridges. As a valuable
resource for researchers scientists and engineers in the field of bridge structural health
monitoring it provides essential information methods and practical algorithms that can
facilitate in-service bridge performance assessments.
